Wow, 12 out of 17 from Waverly?

Not saying anything bad about this because I know the coaches well and know they are fare but I am a little surprised that no other kids from the other schools didnt come to try out?

Hard to fight football and basketball at Piketon.
Football MWF
BB T/TH/Sat shootouts
Kids are expected to be at everything.
Just not fair to the kids.

This is just a pretty darn good baseball team. We split a DH with Post 23 last night.


Those were some very good ball games. The first game at 2-1 ( post 23 )was a pitchers dual for the ages. Those kids and those 2 teams stood toe to toe and traded punches all night. There were hard hit balls, and some great defensive plays, but most of all it was 2 pitchers throwing the right pitch at the right time to get the outs that they needed. If you were there and you are a baseball fan and student of the game, this is the type of game that you always hope to see. It is a shame that one of those kids had to take the loss or that one team had to take a loss. Both teams can be proud that they were involved in such a brilliantly pitched and played game. In Branch Rickey Parks long and storied existance it has no doubt seen some great games, but for the baseball purest, this one ranks right up there.

The second game was also a good game. A little more sloppy but still there were good defensive plays and some good pitching. Post 142 wins that one 14-4 .

i'm sure coach tony tackett will find a way for those games to get made up, because he'll want his boys playing as many games as they can this summer.

Post 14 has canceled all 4 games this weekend at the last minute I could not find any games at the last minute. It is sad we needed to play. Double Header at Post 62 on Tuesday start at 4:30pm. Friday at 6:30pm VS Post 134 at the VA , we split with them this year should be a good game.
